Guiding the Work that Reconnects

From: Coming Back to Life

$1.80

Never before in history have our destinies been so intertwined. The crises facing us are too vast and complex for any one of us alone to comprehend, much less adequately respond. The fact that our fate is a common fate has tremendous implications. It means that in facing it together openly and humbly, we find again our mutual belonging and our power to act. This is the experience of people who come together in the Work that Reconnects. Although the effectiveness of this work can be explained in terms of systems theory, psychology and spiritual teachings, its full transformative power is discovered when we experience it together.
